Fixture Components

Material: Medium Carbon Steel. Hardness: HRC 28-32

FC09 - Swing Bolt

Colour-Coded Plastic Shim Stock

Manufactured from a high quality plastic material. Used for gaskets, special parts and various manufacturing applications it is easy to cut, resists oil and has minimal compression during use. The thickness tolerances are to industry standards. Non-conductive to electricity. The thickness is indicated by shim colour which eliminates the need for a micrometer.

Precision Ground Flat Stock (500mm)

The dimensional stability of ground flat stock combines with other useful characteristics including excellent resistance to cracking during heat treatment compared with other, more highly alloyed, cold work tools. Relatively soft and easy to machine. High wear resistance after heat treatment. Holds a good cutting edge. Suitable for EDM machining.
Typical applications: widely used in precision tools, machine knives, gauges, jigs, templates, punches, dies and machine parts.
The Cost Cutting Stock: extensive range of widths and thicknesses enables the selection of an appropriate size of ground flat stock to minimise material and machining costs.

Manufactured from BS4659 B01 grade steel equivalent to AISI 01 and Werk. No. 1.2510.

Chuck Blocks

For use with magnetic chucks that have parallel poles, so that the magnetic field can be extended to hold awkwardly shaped workpieces. Supplied in matched and numbered pairs. Machinable.

Indexa Die Springs

The heat and surface treatment plus the high quality of steel used in the manufacturing process ensure the springs will bear a high number of stresses without breaking or without appreciable loss of load. Every batch of springs is subject to a rigorous testing procedure to ensure that a consistent quality is maintained. Longer springs should be guided along their course.

Extra Heavy-Load Springs Colour Coded Yellow

Fibre Grips

Fibre-faced aluminium vice jaws for use with copper, aluminium, brass and wooden workpieces to prevent marking of work surface. Supplied in pairs.

Air Gun Tool Kit

For use with hand air guns. Kit comprises of: 454mm extension rod, 140mm flared nozzle (with removable brush), 60mm diameter round brush and a crevice tool.

Silver Steel

For tool room and general engineering. Applications include screwdrivers, punches, shafts, axles, pinions, pins, die posts, instrument parts, model parts, taps and drills for mild steel, engraver tools. High carbon content means that it can be hardened to give high wear resistance and chromium content adds strength and hardness.

Carver Rack Clamps

Consist of a J shape notched bar and sliding jaw. Finished in a bright orange epoxy coating for durability. Uses include metal fabrication, welding, moulding box and die holding, pattern making, plastic and fibreglass moulding & plate fabrication. No long screws to bend, or critical working parts exposed to weld spatter. The action of tightening the clamps does not impose rotation to the workpiece. The jaws may be reversed and the clamp used in reverse action.
